Welcome to my Seeking Beauty in Ordinary photography blog. I am Poland based fine art photographer, graphic designer & web designer. For almost 20 years, I used to work as an Art and English teacher at all school levels. As a designer working on commission, the needs and tastes of my clients are priority. While photography is my way of self-expression, my true love and passion. I took it up in 2009 and each day I’ve been learning something new about photography, technique, gear, etc. Looking at the world through the lens made me see everything in a sharper way, more consciously. I have learnt to notice beauty in things commonly perceived as ugly, ordinary as well as I have learnt to sense some mystic energy surrounding me each day.

I hope you enjoy my through-the-lens vision of a world I share with you on this site and find my Art language tips useful. Your comments are an invaluable feedback to me.For more information about my work visit my Painted with Light website. Contact with via my BEHANCE Pro Site.

images have been taken in Botanic Gardens in my hometown. The works show
my interpretation of the world, or to be more precise, they show the
world, which I would love to live in. I try to show my personal attitude
to the depicted scene, my feelings I have felt in a certain place, the
mood of the particular day.

Seemingly, everone knows that true beauty is the question of inner quality rather than outward features. But in reality, we all, like children, get excited while looking at obvious beauty of flowers or sunsets. Nothing strange, as they are really awesome, stunning, gorgeus. Yet, it's a pity that so few of us is able to notice hidden beauty in ordinary things. For me, the whole natural world has a lot of treasures to offer us. It depends on our sensivity and awareness, whether we are open to take the gift.

Doing housework always makes me philosopihical. It is the right time to lead a wise conversation with my own thoughts about most vital issues. Today, while washing up I realized that life is the best univeristy (not a break-through discovery) in the world, where only the strongest and most passionate pass exams with highest grades. As far as I remember, I have been learning all my life. Each experience, either a significant or a minor one, brought a one step-up-to-wisdom touch to me. And following Wayne Dyer's quote that Heaven on Earth is a choice you must make, not a place you must find, I try everyday to create my
